Comment & Chat Policy

We want you to feel at home when you post a comment on our chat or LiveStream page. We want everyone to feel at home posting comments on our chat or LiveStream page. We don’t know what your home is like, but we know how we expect people to behave when they visit ours. That’s why we reserve the right to delete comments and ban users as needed to keep the comment threads here civil and substantive. Learn more about us.

Our No. 1 house rule is simple: Don’t be a jerk.

Want to be the kind of commenter we’d love to bring home to Thanksgiving dinner? Here’s what we like to see in comments:

Wishing wedding and vow renewals the best.

Give us useful, constructive criticism. Spot a typo or an error? Let us know and we will correct it.

Don’t feed the trolls. You wouldn’t dive into a debate with our ill-informed, weird uncle Gary just for the heck of it. And you definitely wouldn’t feed him. (We told you he was weird.) Downvote and flag comments instead.

Although we can’t be everywhere at once, here are some of the kinds of comments we’re going to do our best to curtail:

Promoting your own brand, product, or blog. So you’ve got a climate change solution that will simultaneously solve world poverty. Great. Send it through our contact form, you Elon Musk, you.

Impersonating authors or other commenters. We can’t believe we have to say this, but: Don’t do that. It’s weird.

Comments that are completely out of left field. Sometimes discussions veer off a bit, but are still related to the original subject. That is fine. Hijacking the conversation to promote off-topic commentary is not.

Threats — no matter how vague — against the featured couples, author or other commenters. Before you casually mention your foe’s home address, think of your Mother Earth. (Bonus points if you never use the phrase “Mother Earth.”)

Racism, sexism, homophobia, you get the drift. Call us the PC Police, fine, but don’t say we didn’t warn you when you get tased. **And by tased, we mean banned or deleted.

Trolling. If you’re a troll, just out for a good trolling and are not contributing meaningfully to the conversation, we’ll be pushing you back under the bridge.
